    Remember how Earthbound didn't make it to the American Brawl Masterpieces?

    The fuss is exactly because the game is NOT generic, but is treated as such by people just like you; the ones who barely even played it. Earthbound is an essential SNES RPG in every way, and is one of the most original games of all time, minus the Dragon Warrior-esque battle system. The charm...

    Zero Punctuation: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

    Well, how else would you establish records with all characters for target tests? The game is helping you reach a complete 100% in every facet.

    Yahtzee's Zero Punctuation review for Brawl has finally arrived! I hope your happy!

    This review was hilarious. Even as a huge fan of the game, I laughed hard. People who are even remotely offended by Yahtzee's remarks are totally missing the point of his reviews in the first place. Heck, the same goes for those who wholeheartedly agree with him. And guys, the SSE is designed...

    What you do instead of taunting after a KO

    I usually just reposition myself. Most times I forget to do anything special, even a taunt.

    Europe Brawl release Date Confirmed.

    Still seems a tad late for them, but eh. I guess it's better than getting the game in late Q3 to early Q4.

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    Well, I don't recall many games at all that couldn't have been better. If they do exist, they're games from a long time ago. These days there's always something that's imperfect about games, and there are many factors that contribute. In my personal opinion, a game like Smash Brothers in...

    Stage Tournament: Pokemon Stadium 2 Vs. PictoChat

    Best: WarioWare Inc. Worst: Mona's Pizza Although, pretty much every song besides WarioWare Inc. and the WarioWare medley are terrible.

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    Can we really say that it's his fault? There are other people on the game's team that are there to maintain the online infrastructure. Sakurai may have come up with the plans, but they are only applicable on a basic level. Say, it was his idea for it to be a choice between "friends" and "with...

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    Maybe, in a sense. But that's not really the point. When we're talking about the game as a whole, you have to bring in the online mode, which was a lot of MKDS's original appeal. Online play was unfun when you got put against a guy with a ridiculous win/loss ratio that just happens to snake...

    An Essay on the Community: Approaching a Unique Problem from Both Sides

    Good essay, but it seems too general in some way. There are certainly people who DON'T love all forms of Smash (i.e. Brawl haters). On the other side, there are also newcomers who are labeled "scrubs" because they think they have some kind of word above others, when they don't even know what...

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    What does it have to do with Sakurai? It wasn't his idea to have online like it is. Heck, the guy doesn't even work directly under Nintendo anymore. Blame Nintendo for the wrongdoing. They didn't put enough resources towards Brawl's WiFi connection. This can obviously be seen if you look at...

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    Snaking was broken. It made online unfun. Even though I don't care for wavedashing, I can at least say it enhanced the gameplay for competitives. Snaking just ******** Mario Kart DS. Nintendo making snaking impossible was a godsend.

    A comparison between Brawl online & Mario Kart Wii online... WTF?

    It's all about the servers. I think Nintendo was more set on dedicating servers to Mario Kart than Brawl because Mario Kart, as it stands, is a more important online game to them. It's "bridge title" status makes it more dire to provide a good online experience, even though Brawl is, in my...

    Sakurai does not want Smash to be a competitive franchise

    Not everyone dislikes Brawl? You're right. 98% of the people who've played it like it or love it. Then there's just the bitter 2% who believe Sakurai, a game designer of all things, wronged them personally.
